Adding UITextField on UIView Programmatically Swift

Question

I\'m new to Swift and iOS programming. I was trying to create a UITextField programmatically using Swift but couldn\'t get it quite right. Also how do you change it

Answer 1

Make sure you're in the viewDidLoad() and then simply add the following code to produce a textField:

let myTextField: UITextField = UITextField(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200.00, height: 40.00));
    self.view.addSubview(myTextField)

    myTextField.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
    myTextField.text = "some string"
    myTextField.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyle.Line
